SOMOS DISTRIBUTION PRESENTS TOP SHORELINE TITLES AT NATPE

MIAMI, Florida, – January 16, 2014 – SOMOS Distribution will present over 100 top quality independent films at the 2014 NATPE as part of their new catalog. Among these great films are “Dummy”, “The Maid”, “Beeper” and “Last Goodbye”, which will be available, along with an extensive catalog due to the company’s agreement with Shoreline Entertainment, known for distributing cutting edge and critically acclaimed entertainment to the global marketplace and its long-standing relationships with prominent independent film producers around the world. The films are mostly independent and contemporary Hollywood movies with a wide variety of genres, including but not limited to romance, action thrillers, documentaries, and comedies.

This movie collection represents a wide selection of top quality films, with theatrical releases, and representative of the best in independent film production in the U.S and International markets. At a time when Hollywood has lowered its output and has centered itself mostly in the exploitation of franchises, the independent film industry has flourished with edgy plots and the participation of well-known talent in all aspects of the business, since these films offer the best roles and sophisticated plots.

“Dummy” by Matthew Thompson is a drama based on the story of two siblings, Danny and Jack, that must come to terms with their mother’s death. When Danny tries to cope by using drugs, music and sex, Jack turns a mannequin into a surrogate parent using their mother’s old clothes. However, eventually they have to accept the ugly truth. The movie has received two nominations, one from the London Critics Circle Film Awards for “Young British Performer of the Year” and the other from the Raindance Film Festival for “UK Feature”. “Beeper” is a thriller/ crime by Jack Sholder about a doctor who must follow instructions sent via a beeper to rescue his kidnapped son. He seeks help from unlikely sources, including a drug lord and a beautiful but dangerous woman.

“The Maid” is a comedic drama, by Sebastian Silva, centered on a maid with over 23 years serving the same family, trying to hold on to her position. The highly acclaimed film has received 28 awards (including “Special Jury Award” and “Grand Jury Award” from the Sundance Film Festival, the “Audience Award” from Paris Cinema, “Best Script” and the “Inspiration Award” from Miami Film Festival and “Best Film” from the Cartagena Film Festival) and 9 nominations (including “Best Foreign Language Film” from the Golden Globes). In the “Last Goodbye”, a handful of characters, each at emotional crossroads, find their paths leading to Atlanta in this independent drama by Jacob Gentry and starring Faye Dunaway and David Carradine.

Most of the films have been presented at film festivals such as the Toronto International Film Festival, the Hollywood Film Festival and Sedona International Film Festival. They also include popular Hollywood actors and actresses such as Angelina Jolie (Confessions of an Action Star), David Carradine (Last Goodbye), Faye Dunaway (Last Goodbye), Daniel Baldwin (Sidekick), Carrie-Anne Moss (Confessions of an Action Star), Sean Young (Moscow Days, LA Nights), Natalie Dormer (City of Life), Abigail Spencer (Fathers & Sons), Joe Mantegna (Hank and Mike), Ari Gold (Adventures of Power), and Mario Lopez (Crack in the Floor), among others.
